One of the biggest obstacles in quantum computing is surprisingly simple to describe: how do you read information without changing or destroying it? Unlike the bits used in ordinary computers, quantum bits, or qubits, are extraordinarily sensitive to measurement. Trying…
Rice University Rice’s Xie honored with ACS-Moore Postdoctoral Bridge Award in Quantum Materials Fang Xie, a postdoctoral fellow in Rice University’s physics and astronomy department and Extreme Quantum Materials Alliance (eQMA), has received the ACS-Moore Postdoctoral Bridge Award in Quantum…
Susan Curtis is a freelance science writer based in Bristol, UK. Researchers have proposed that structural disorder can be harnessed to generate coherent, directional light from the passage of a charged particle. Read More » A new method lets quantum gas…
Much of our online security relies on a digital padlock system called RSA encryption, which protects our privacy as we doomscroll social media, get software updates, or do banking transactions to fund further doomscrolling. The RSA-2048 encryption standard is easy…
Rusty is a quantum science nerd. He's been into academic science all his life, but spent his formative years doing less academic things. Now he turns his attention to write about his passion, the quantum realm. He loves all things…
A layer of material just a few atoms thick inside the Josephson junction may be the key limitation preventing the next leap in quantum computing power, according to researchers at UC Santa Barbara. The university’s team joins the new $27.9 million…
Researchers also found that while local filtering can increase data clarity, it generally destroys the faithfulness needed for reliable channel reconstruction, and that bound entangled states can even outperform full rank separable probes in AAQPT. These results identify AAQPT as…
Dr. Donovan is a futurist and technology writer covering the quantum revolution. Where classical computers manipulate bits that are either on or off, quantum machines exploit superposition and entanglement to process information in ways that classical physics cannot. Dr. Donovan…
The Quantum Insider IonQ Partners With QuantumCT to Expand Quantum Computing Access in Connecticut - IonQ has partnered with QuantumCT to provide Connecticut-based universities, research laboratories, startups and businesses with access to its trapped-ion quantum computers. - The agreement includes more than…
Getty Images / J Studios HONOLULU—Preparing for a quantum computer attack means two things: knowing exactly which systems will need to be upgraded and making sure everyone understands how serious the risk is to sensitive data protected by standard encryption.
Qubits, entanglement, quantum sensing, and information theory basics.
